Enjoying beautiful views of the Isle of Wight and Ballard Downs, the beach is a perfect place to chill out and relax.
Traditional beach huts are available to hire along the beach and are an excellent way to escape the summer sun. These beach huts are available to hire by the day or by the week from Poole council, although some are available directly from the beach hut tenants.
